...feeling like it's my patriotic duty to cheer for the Blue Jays. All this "...our team, our time" BS. I liked it better when they were only interested in selling beer. Now that they're owned by a media conglomerate all they're selling is yappy opinionated assholes who never watched a game until this year.

If the Blue Jays win the AL, Barry Davis will wet his pants.

And am now watching again so I suppose that is almost as bad, LOL.

But I've noticed a bit of the OTT advertising and patriotic stuff. It's a bit much.

Still cheering for them though.
